About

[edit | edit source]

Have you ever played in a "Wikipedia Race"? It's a game where people compete to "click" from one Wikipedia article to another using only the hyperlinks on each article. The goal is to use the fewest number of clicks. Sometimes it's called WikiClick, sometimes it's called Wikiladders, sometimes it's called Wikispeedia, but the goals is always the same!
